I recently stayed at the Bavarian Inn with my husband and our 4 and 6 year olds. The amenities were excellent. Our kids loved the pools and arcade. The property was very well-kept and the staff were very friendly. The beds were very comfortable. There was some noise in the morning from the construction of the new water park, but nothing excessive. We have visited Frankenmuth many times, but this was our first time staying at the Bavarian Inn. We are unlikely to stay elsewhere on future trips as we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Just took the family here over the weekend and were absolutely blown away by this place! An absolute 5 star experience with enough things to do in the hotel itself that you won't even get to Frankenmuth for at least a day or two. 5 stars all around. Shout out to the great staff as well

The Bavarian Inn is very charming and is within walking distance to downtown Frankenmuth. Our overall stay was pleasant and we loved that there was plenty to do within the resort, the water slides were a hit with my family! The Christmas decor created a wonderful atmosphere. Unfortunately the rooms, while very clean, are in desperate need of a refresh especially for the price. The walls are paper thin and the noise from the hallways can be very loud. Our biggest grievance was the incredibly loud heat/ac as it rumbled and rattled on and off all night long no matter how we adjusted the temperature. This is to be expected from an older building but it did not make for the best sleeping experience so light sleepers beware!

The property design was unique. It was outdated, seemed unorganized. Signage was bad. Not enough staff at desk when they were clearly sold old (long lines). Everything seems chaotic there. Not relaxing or fun. It was themed well, as it should be. Probably will never return.

They’re building an $80 million dollar water park. Good location and early check in available without additional costs, which was nice.
